Everything you need to know about the new pricing model

Saleshandy started with a handful of customers. But, we grew big with time following a simple strategy: listen to our customers consistently, and build what they need to get their jobs done.

This approach helped us develop impactful features and know our customers better. For years, we kept shipping features and assisting customers until we found ourselves where customers frequently asked us questions about more customized pricing serving their cold emailing requirements.

As 2023 approaches, we have reached a point where most of our customers use Saleshandy to carry out lead-generation activities to book meetings for their services, businesses, and clients. Updating the pricing and making it more lead-generation friendly has become necessary to overcome new challenges.

As we already mentioned, Saleshandy has always listened to the customers. We today announce our new pricing plans—a substantive update since Saleshandy launched.

Therefore, we want to ensure that you know what we are doing, why, and how it helps you. This blog will cover everything you need to know.

Challenges our customers faced

A lot has changed in the cold emailing and lead generation. It is always challenging to send targeted emails to prospects and scale the outreach at the same time. 

Whenever you try to increase the volume of your outreach, no matter what best practices you follow, Email Service Providers will mark your practice as bulk emailing.

Bulk emailing has become unpopular among every ESP. It would be true to say that ESPs hate bulk emailing. Well, it was not always the case. ESPs suggested scope for increasing emails—refer to the below screenshot—but gradually, they started marking it as spam. 

It is sad to know that ESPs no more follow what they suggested once in the past. Even if you follow the best practices of cold emailing and send out 1000, 2000, or 3000 emails daily, you will get suspended before you know it. 

Below is an example of how Gmail and Outlook suspend you.

Getting banned, blocked, or flagged by an ESP has bad consequences. It critically affects your domain reputation and ability to carry out business activities using the same domain. Moreover, it takes a long time to recover from the damage and start with your outreach again. 

Also, it hardly makes any sense to start with a new domain and warm it up as it holds the same chances of getting banned from trying out bulk emailing. 

With the uncertain nature of ESPs, cold emailing faces new and bitter challenges. Especially for users who use it for generating leads and mass prospecting. Thus, it would be appropriate to argue that single-mailbox sending is no longer the future of cold emailing, especially in the case of bulk emailing.

FYI: Whenever you use a single email account to send your prospects bulk emails, you call it single mailbox outreach. It was the same way Saleshandy worked until now: you connected your email account with Saleshandy, uploaded prospects, created sequences, and sent them out.

As single email accounts won’t help anymore, it is the reason why we came up with a new outreach approach and new pricing for you and all our users.

Let’s know more about the new approach and how it helps.

What’s the new approach?

We thought over this for months, listened to many customers, and came up with something we never did before. Surprisingly, the secret was always open:

ESPs may limit you from sending bulk emails from a single email account, but adding more accounts is entirely in your control.

Well, it’s a valid question: How will adding more email accounts help you?

You can work it out in reverse. For example, you want to send out 1000 emails in a single day, and your ESP has a limit of 100 emails per day. You can send 1000 emails from 10 email accounts and get even better results! Yes, and your ESP won’t mind it anymore. 

It’s a win-win situation for you and your ESP. You don’t breach the sending limit, and in turn, you get magical deliverability numbers. 

That’s the key, and you can add up unlimited email accounts and deliver 1000, 5000, 1000, or even 500k emails with perfect deliverability and results.

Note: Best practices related to unlimited email accounts are discussed in the next section.

Can we connect unlimited email accounts? How is that manageable and cost-effective?

It is an obvious question when we talk about connecting unlimited email accounts. And, yes, this is possible. We devised New Pricing plans to make connecting unlimited email accounts a reality and a cost-effective solution.

Let’s see how the New Pricing will bring disruption and extensively change your cold emailing and lead generation experience.

New Pricing: A Game Changer

The New Pricing does not limit how many mailboxes (email accounts) you can connect with Saleshandy. You can now reach your prospects through unlimited email accounts. 

Connecting unlimited email accounts is a win-win for your email deliverability and results.

Pay only for what’s working for you 

There is no limit on the number of email accounts you can connect to. As per the new plans, you can figure out how many prospects you want to reach out to in a month or a day and pay accordingly. 

We personalized the new pricing per your needs. You only pay for what you use.

Some key features you will notice on the New Pricing:

• You pay no additional cost on adding team members. 
• You get free verification credits with every plan.
• No plan discriminates with any features.
• If you choose an annual plan, a 30% discount is applied.

How does it work?

There is nothing simpler than sending emails from unlimited email accounts. 

You can create & connect as many email accounts as you like with unlimited domains.

The foremost thing is to create five email accounts from one domain and send 50 targeted emails from each account for better deliverability.

This is the formula for how it works:

*Total emails per day / 50 = Number of required email accounts  
*Number of needed email accounts / 5 = Number of needed domains

Note: It is best to keep 5 email accounts per domain to ensure the best deliverability 

For example if you want to send 100, 1k, 10k emails per day, you would need the following based on the same formula.

What do you get in terms of results?

Optimum email deliverability: The New Pricing is ESP and lead-generation friendly. No matter how much you send out daily, your receive high deliverability – as the new approach suggests you send only 50 emails per day per email account.

Domain reputation: High deliverability and a healthy sending rate help you improve your domain’s reputation drastically. You won’t end up with the suspension, and an enhanced reputation would increase your ability to send out outreaches forever.

High ROI: The New Pricing is tried and tested. It allows you to achieve three to nine times ROI with unlimited accounts. You can scale at your will following the best practices in the above section. 

(You can calculate your ROI with the New Pricing Plans with this sheet). 

As we discussed in the beginning, this will be a big change for both Saleshandy and users.

Once you opt for our New Pricing, you will love Saleshandy more. It aims to deliver better value while keeping costs reasonable. With our flexible New Pricing, we are sure you will scale your outreach and business like never before.
